Diamond or Morels?

[hunter121 10+ year member]

Need some new door speakers for the truck (killing the boston SL65's with to much power) and will be sending the speakers 100rms. The Morel tempo 6C and the Diamond 661-I look like they will work for handling the power but I dont have any experiance with either brand. Kinda leaning towards the morels from some of the reviews but the Diamonds look pretty **** good as well.

Never heard either coax, but in general I would go with the Morel brand over Diamond without hesitation.

listen to some and make your mind up after you have heard them both... its nearly impossible to tell you what you will like accurately.

I appreciate the responses so far guys, Listening to them before hand is just not going to happen since I am working 6 days a week and a minimum of 12hrs a day. I am also away from home in Missouri and there really is nothing local except for a shop that only carries Lanzar, jvc,memphis and JL audio. Already know the guy is crazy since he wants $500 for a set of JL coax.

Next mission is trying to convince a online retailer to send to a motel addy, lol its going to take some convincing.

Just pulled in to Cameron Saturday, little warmer then I am used to but I like the area so far. Should be here for the rest of the year.

I dont have experience with the Morels, but the Diamond D6's are an ok 'mid level' speaker.

Not sure about the Morel Coax but I am enjoying their components at the moment. If I had to choose it pick the Morel's.
